Answer:
- 7.5 ft
- 32.5 ft, 5 ft
- 10.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The starting height is h(0) = 7.5 feet, the constant in the quadratic function.
The irrigation system is positioned <u> 7.5 </u> feet above the ground
__
b) The axis of symmetry for quadratic ax^2 +bx +c is x = -b/(2a). For this quadratic, that is x=-10/(2(-1)) = 5. This is the horizontal distance to the point of maximum height. The maximum height is ...
h(5) = (-5 +10)(5) +7.5 = 32.5 . . . feet
The spray reaches a maximum height of <u> 32.5 </u> feet at a horizontal distance of <u> 5 </u> feet from the sprinkler head.
__
c) The maximum distance will be √32.5 + 5 ≈ 10.7 ft.
The spray reaches the ground at about <u> 10.7 </u> feet away.
Answer:
13. B. 24 cm²
14. y = 5⅝ (none of the options is correct)
Step-by-step explanation:
13. The figure is a trapezoid
Area of the trapezoid = ½(a + b)h
Where,
a = 3 cm
b = 5 cm
h = 6 cm
Area = ½(3 + 5)6
= ½(8)6
= 4*6
= 24 cm²
14. Area of the triangle = ½*b*h
The area is given to be 45 cm²
base (b) = 16 cm
height (h) = y
Plug in the values and solve for y
45 = ½*16*y
45 = 8y
Divide both sides by 8
45/8 = 8y/8
45/8 = y
5⅝ = y
y = 5⅝ (none of the options is correct)
To solve for x just isolate x by moving the other variables so....:
First add c to both sides
g+c= y+x
Subtract y from both sides
g+c-y= x
That should be your final answer (we cannot come up with an actual digit for x because there are no numbers in this equation we simply can make an equation for x)
Answer:
- <u>It is a combination</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
This is a combination because the order does not matter: the Beagle - Collie couple is the same as the Collie - Beagle couple, so it is only counted once.
The formula for combinations is:
For five diffferent dogs to be put in pairs, the number of different pairs is:
